"This is his attempt to fix the midterm election and save his own ass. I brought this up during the monologue the other night and I guess this didn't sit too well with one of the Schmittheads on Newsmax who would like to report me to the authorities."
"Oh, they're such tattletales. Such little Karens. They're so worried about cancel culture until I come on and then they're like, Call the FCC. He's breaking the law.' How does this not embarrass them?"
"This channel he's on, Newsmax, I don't know if you see, they're literally on a payment plan right now. They owe $67 million for spreading Trump's election lies. They paid $20 million two months ago for their lies, they have to pay another $20 million in January of next year, but we're propaganda."
Jimmy Kimmel responded to Newsmax host Rob Schmitt's call for FCC sanctions against him, characterizing Schmitt as a tattletale engaging in cancel culture. Schmitt had criticized Kimmel's monologue commentary on Trump's Save America Act as propaganda rather than comedy. Kimmel defended his show as legitimate comedy and pointed out the hypocrisy of Newsmax criticizing cancel culture while attempting to silence him. He highlighted Newsmax's legal troubles, noting the network is on a payment plan for $67 million in damages related to spreading election misinformation, having already paid $20 million with another $20 million due in January. Kimmel concluded by comparing Newsmax's relationship to the Trump administration to a promotional publication's relationship with a retail store.
